I WRITE to you further to your article in your January 1 2015 edition on the Foodwise Course run by Barry Communities First.
I completed the course before Christmas and lost a total of 29 1/4lbs in the 10 weeks I was on the course. It is a course that I highly recommend; Hazel James who runs the course is an inspiration and superb advocate for the course.
When I went on the course, I weighed 21 stone 6 1/4lbs and was drinking and eating too much, I now weigh 18 stone 13 1/4lbs, but within a few weeks of doing this course I had more energy and stopped drinking along with more exercise.
The one thing I have got from this course is confidence, before doing this course I would never have thought of enrolling to college to do health, fitness and wellbeing diploma to become a gym instructor.
The course shows you how to change your eating habits and swap different things, it is a course that I would highly recommend to anyone. The people are friendly and Hazel is very professional in what she does and is always there to give you advice and help should you need it.
